The strong scent of alcohol wafted from him causing Lenora to furrow her brows and hold her breath.

Upon hearing the sound of the door locking, she felt a chill run down her spine. She calmed herself down and made the first move. "Zachary, have you lost your mind? Why did you bring me here?" Zachary's lips were tightly pressed together as he fixed his eyes on her.

Lenora tried to push him away with all her might, but he remained immovable.

Zachary curled his lips into a mocking smile. "You don't know? Then why did you run away when you saw me?"

Lenora looked into his eyes. "I didn't."

"Are you sure?" Zachary asked with a playful tone, his Adam's apple bobbing.

"Yes." Lenora nodded fervently.

Zachary chuckled, his eyes growing darker. "In that case, since Connor is a promising prospect in the market and Trident Technologies is interested in him, why don't you go and recommend him to me?"

Lenora paused for a couple of seconds before saying, "He also received an offer from Trident Technologies, but in the end, he chose Fuller Group. That shows that Fuller Group appeals to him more. There's no point in recommending him to you now." "Since you won't help me, I'll go find him myself."

After speaking, Zachary reached for the door handle.

Lenora's expression shifted as she grabbed him immediately. "Zachary!"

Zachary looked down at her. "What's wrong?"

Lenora was filled with hesitation.

Harrietta was just a child. Connor wouldn't mind.

But Zachary was different.

If Connor were to find out that she attended the cocktail party with Zachary, their relationship, already hanging by a thread, might not continue.

It would be challenging to coax information out of him then.

Seeing that Lenora was silent, Zachary scoffed lightly. His large hand rested on the door, closing the distance between them even more. "Didn't you say you didn't run away? Are you that scared of him seeing me?"

Is she really in love with Connor?

Lenora couldn't help but lean back, pressing against the door to create some distance. "We're already divorced. If he sees us attending the cocktail party together, it might lead to misunderstandings."
